Today I fished a tiny local pond where I spotted some large exotic pest fish swimming around. Armed with some soft plastic lures and some good old bread I gave it a go to see if I could catch them.
They turned out to Tilapia which are noxious introduced species in Queensland Australia. These fish cannot be returned to the water. for more info see below link to Queensland fishing regulations.

that's great I've seen you catch both carp and tilapia on lures. you must like a challenge

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

Always happy to give it a go and see what happens. I fond most fish with have a go at a small soft plastic. Also find a little scent makes a big different

@LanceKnott Год назад

Really good feed,one of my favourites. Pity some way cant be arranged for catch and cook only. Thank you for the upload.

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

Yeah its a real shame you can't keep them for food but I guess some people would spread them to other lakes .

@LanceKnott Год назад

@@ScaleUpadventures I would not be surprised.

@jojobus6354 Год назад

unfortunately looks too late with the last lot of floods these guys have spread pretty much everywhere in SEQ

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

Yeah it seems to be the case and will only get worse

@motorwelder Год назад

Mate that's a good pond, have done exceptionally well in that one,, used to get some real good spangled perch in there once, but now none. Took 29 not long back, their real tigers in that puddle.....

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

Spot on mate. Haven't seen any spangled perch in there but then again I've only fished it the one time. Hope there are still a few hiding somewhere.

@motorwelder Год назад

@@ScaleUpadventures unfortunately the last few times we visited we didn't see a single one.

@marlonb.8243 21 день назад

These fish are also called "St. Peter's Perch," because these were being fished in the region during Christ's & Peter's time and before. They are even here in Southern California, and the local Ospreys eat them regularly, and they never run out of Tilapia as a food source. The ones you caught with the red-edged fins are Mozambique Tilapias.

@ScaleUpadventures 21 день назад

Ohhh thanks. I have heard of them called mozambique name before. St Peter's Perch is a new one to me. They definitely breed in big numbers

@frankfranky7250 Год назад

love it you make it look so easy and fun.

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

Took a few cast to get them they after they shut down definitely wasn't easy haha

@WallaceLivingFree Год назад

Talarpia are great eating cheers.

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

They sure are but unfortunately not alowed to take them home here is SEQ.

@@ScaleUpadventuresDon’t listen to that stupid rule.

@VoulaDimos-nw4lf Год назад

Are they like the carp we have in Melb?

@ScaleUpadventures Год назад

Yeah they are the same as they live in every creek or lake around the place

@rodderslw Год назад

Only thing in common is they are a noxious fish "vermin". They are part of a family of fish cichlidae. This species originate from Africa. One of the world most farmed food fish.

Nice work. :) They really are a pest!

@dingydate 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing the vid, good fun, were you saying that they NEST in the shallows ? i know they catch them in North PINE DAM , such a shame they are a good looking fish, i know Somerset Dam now has quite a few exotic pests as well. Cheers mate tight lines, Chris

@ScaleUpadventures 7 месяцев назад

Hey mate glad you enjoyed the vid. I have seen them nesting in pretty shallow water in this pond and heaps in pine dam also. Havent target them there as yet. They are good fun to catch

@esso0527 День назад

Would you use a sinker on your line or just a small hook?

@ScaleUpadventures День назад

I just use a small hook no sinker. But if it's windy or you need to cast further out a small sinker would be fine.

@esso0527 День назад

@johnnielee9838 4 месяца назад

Nice catch where is this

@ScaleUpadventures 4 месяца назад

North of Brisbane. Pretty much any suburban creek or pond will be full of them.

@jaaadanschannel5094 2 месяца назад

Waste of good meat we love them here

@ScaleUpadventures 2 месяца назад

I tend to agree with you although I wouldn't be too keen eating them out of this pond, to be honest.

@White_Tiger93 4 месяца назад

I caught a tilapia using bobber setup as well but with tiny micro soft plastic lures below it, check it out its on my channel.

@ScaleUpadventures 4 месяца назад

Thanks mate that's a great idea. I will take a look might have to give that a go.

@christopherlee4613 4 месяца назад

They are really good eating fish... not sure why they won't let you guys eat them? If more people eat them, the tilapia fish will go faster.

@ScaleUpadventures 4 месяца назад

Yeah I totally agree with you. I think they are worried that people will deliberately spread them into new waterways. However, with the floods we recently had, they have pretty much spread everywhere already

@spasi57 7 месяцев назад

So sad to waste such a beautiful fish. Also food waste :(

@maddkatter7948 4 месяца назад

We eat them in Florida by the dozen.

@ScaleUpadventures 4 месяца назад

I wish we could they are delicious. Unfortunately law says we have to dispose of them straight away and not transport them in any way.

@jfiekms 10 дней назад

@@ScaleUpadventuresHow about dispatch him and just cut the filets out and transport those. Doesn’t really make a difference right?

@ScaleUpadventures 10 дней назад

I wouldn't think so. Out of that pond I'm catching them in I wouldn't want to eat them to be honest

@jfiekms 10 дней назад

@@ScaleUpadventures Why not? Maybe you australians have different standards but here on Borneo that would be dinner. Good dinner.

@ScaleUpadventures 10 дней назад

@jfiekms it's in an urban park fed by storm water run off. Im sure compared to some other waterways its not to bad but I catch enough fish from the ocean to not have to risk it.
